One Way to Keep Crime Down

  • Authorities arrested dozens of people overnight in a series of drug raids ahead of Memorial Day weekend.

    Chicago police Organized Crime officers arrested 32 people in the South Side raids, 21 of whom have previous felony convictions, according to a tweet from CPD spokesman Anthony Guglielmi. Seven of them have prior convictions for gun-related offenses.

    Police did not immediately provide further details about the raids or arrests.
Being a previously convicted felon isn't against the law.

Neither is having a gun-related conviction.

Google-me promises further information, and we'd certain hope so, seeing as how what's available in this article is merely bullshit. Is the CPD just sweeping the streets for previously known problem children? Are these parole violations? Named offenders from a sting? Warrants?

Are they all being held at the Homan Square "black site" until the holiday is over?

In theory it’s a great idea. And a few years ago it wasn’t bad when implemented.
The last few times they tried to do that- most of the fish they scooped up we’re back out by the end of the weekend anyways, so it’s a moot point.

Not to mention, they also started targeting soecific violent gangs.
Go figure, people complained that “CPD is targeting minorities to put in jail for the holidays.”

And I’m sure that will still be the complaint. If you pull a racial breakdown of the 32 places in custody as part of this “holiday initiative,” you’ll see if is disproportionate to the racial breakdown of the city, and therefore it must be racist.

I just read an article on the Trib’s website where Lightfoot is preparing for the summer violence and how she’s going to hold people responsible.

“...Lightfoot also said she’s pushing police to more aggressively use gathered intelligence for solving crimes, and said she’s dissatisfied with the detectives division because its rate for solving homicides in recent years needs to improve. ...”

Hey Lightfoot, how about some accountability from your community? How about some accountability for the parents (I use that term loosely) who raised these feral beasts? How about some accountability fir these feral beasts, themselves? The police aren’t the ones who are killing in these neighborhoods. The community doesn’t cooperate. Not only is it tolerated, it’s accepted, and in some parts, it’s glorified. Try starting there. And no, I’m not a detective, either.

If they were kept in prison to start with, you wouldn't have to round them all up. The streets would be safer, they would be safer too.

No one ever follows up on arrest. Were they in fact charged? What is the disposition of the case? Were they released on bond in a timely manner like the S/A wants? Or is this a BIG game of bullshit we do for whomever is the mayor? We will never know. Media doesn't follow up

What is the point of patrolmen everywhere? Police can't use force unless the "optics" are right, and the state won't charge anyone except officers and MAYBE anyone on scene who can afford an attorney. The CPD is a gun with no bullets, the CPD are go-pros. Good luck, general public!

What a crock of bullshit and nothing more than another pre holiday publicity stunt by Jugghaid SpecialEd to calm the fearful law and orderly who doubted his leadership abilities for the past 3 years. Not like he hasn’t doing these stunts before either.
So for the past 5 months these 32 assorted violent armed feral roamed the streets unabated, only to have SpecialEd give the green light to have them lock’tup for a few hours of processing, then Cook Co can release them no later than Sunday morning.
What did SpecialEd say when he took the job...”arresting the right people for the right crime”.
So what’s that, in the meantime, y’all go about you’re bidness until we get around to it, like the summer lead up holidays.
Bright, effective strategy.

The challenge:
Will the FakeNews media be waiting at Cook Co to interview these arrestees being bonded affordably, like they did when Juicce Swollette got freed?
Will Jugghaid be just as shocked?

FakeNews from CPD News Affairs.

The fact that Rahm still has protection by the police shoes Lori is knee deep in kissing his ass. She has kept his crooked staffers like fat head ed, Ferguson, Tom carney at CDOT, crooked mike Kelly at the park district, Janice Jackson, CPS ceo who allows sexual predators and graduates kids who cannot read, lousy corporation counsel Siskel, and failed phony ethics board director Steve Berlin. Total setup to elect Lori by the machine and the 19th Ward with the help of phony John Lausch who started stuff to make burke look bad. Where are all the indictments John? Or do you have to ask Rahm first for permission? Lausch refuses to investigate Ferguson on a number of his refusal to look into democrats corruption. Total obstruction by Ferguson let to die because he is bff with lying Lori.

So if someone in academia wanted to do something that actually would be useful, they would conduct a study of the societal costs (medical, criminal justice, victim impact, etc.) of early release offenders. Don't hold your breath, though, because the policy implications would be so politically incorrect and unpalatable in the "community".

Another way is the Lori way, like she did today, driving through 011 with a massive contingency of squads and SWAT. No crime anywhere. If she did that everyday all over the city, Chicago would be crime free

Another way to keep crime down is to put Cmdr Michael Pigott on patrol. Guy sounded like a real douchebag on the radio last night. Seems like an awful waste of talents to cage him in the 001st district, when that type of leadership could really motivate the south side coppers.

What good is a "safe holiday weekend" when next weekend is going to be the same old shitshow as usual?

I see how this is going. Voters elect the corrupt politicians, the politicians do nothing, including not holding the scum accountable, they play the smoke and mirrors show trying to make it look like they're doing something, people are pissed about the crime, and the corrupt politicians say they're "doing all they can". In the end, nothing happens. The same people get voted into office, the taxes keep going up to pad the pockets of the politicians, the same "tough on crime" act is played, and everyone else (the police and the citizens) are still subject to all the same dangers from the scum. It's obviously not bad enough yet for anyone to take much of a stand beyond complaining about it, so the cycle continues.

Watch out though, because while everyone else is moving out of the city and state to escape the tax/crime trap, the "usual suspects" are strangely disinterested in doing so. Who's your neighbor going to be, when all your good neighbors move away? (And who's going to pay the taxes when your neighbor is a professional look-out or mule?)

Does anyone know what is going on with the gang war to shooting so far nobody shot yet around 5400 Laramie In the 008th district?
Is the commander putting more people out here with the violence increasing the shootings or is he just concentrating everything on the east end which would be typical of what he does? Yesterday again it happened it seems to be pretty constant!

Feral parents taking responsibility for their feral children? Never happen, irresponsibility is encouraged by the Cook County clowns. I look at crime stats and read news from other places and here's a shocker. Mobile, Alabama Public Safety Director, James Barber, said that in 2018, "As many as 90 percent of our victims are in the African-American community, as well as 90 percent of the shooters". But rather than own up to the problems in their communities they whine and cry about Civil War statues.
